PREFACE 

This  handbook  is  an  outgrowth  of  a  desire  to  make  the 
library  resources  of  Chicago  better  known  both  to  the  members 
of  the  Chicago  Library  Club  and  to  the  public,  and  to  com- 
memorate in  a  modest  way  the  twenty-fifth  anniversary  of  the 
club's  existence.  The  list  of  libraries  is  not  complete  although 
considerable  effort  has  been  expended  to  make  it  so.  The  data 
in  regard  to  each  institution  is  simply  an  indication  of  its 
resources.  It  is  hoped  that  the  index  of  subjects  will  make  this 
information  more  valuable. 

The  committee  is  indebted  to  Miss  Ahern  for  a  short  sketch 
of  the  history  and  development  of  the  club.  In  1905  the  club 
issued  a  very  useful  volume,  "Libraries  of  the  City  of  Chicago 
with  an  Historical  Sketch  of  the  Chicago  Library  Club,"  which 
gives  a  more  chronological  and  constitutional  history.

A  RESUME  OF  THE  CLUB'S  CAREER 

The  recorded  history  of  the  Chicago  Library  Club  tells  of 
several  motives  in  the  minds  of  those  whose  activity  brought 
about  the  organization.  There  were  at  that  time,  it  is  said,  a 
number  of  library  workers  in  Chicago,  who  had  previously  been 
members  of  the  New  York  Library  Club.  Further,  it  was  fore- 
seen that  the  occasion  of  the  World's  Columbian  Exposition 
would  bring  to  Chicago  those  interested  in  library  development, 
in  such  numbers  and  under  such  circumstances  as  would  seem 
to  call  for  an  impersonal  host  for  the  occasions  which  wuold 
arise. 

However  it  was,  the  club  was  organized  in  December,  1891, 
in  common  with  many  similar  groups  of  Chicago  people,  deter- 
mined to  make  the  visitors  to  the  World's  Fair  understand 
Chicago  and  its  interests. 

The  occasion  of  the  World's  Fair  in  Chicago  marked  a  new 
era  for  many  lines  of  endeavor.  Among  these  was  library 
service  and  extension.  Not  only  in  Chicago,  but  throughout  the 
entire  Middle  West,  if,  indeed,  one  may  not  say  the  whole 
country,  library  work  as  a  public  service  took  on  new  energy, 
character,  enlightenment  and  many  far-reaching  results  that  had 
not  marked  its  existence  before. 

It  must  always  be  a  matter  of  pride  to  the  Chicago  Library 
Club  that  its  first  president  was  Dr.  William  Frederick  Poole. 
His  election  bespoke  activity  and  farsightedness  and  at  the  same 
time  assured  genial  companionship  and  inspiration. 

The  personnel  of  the  Chicago  Library  Club  changed  rapidly 
with  the  activities  of  the  time.  Death  removed  Dr.  Poole,  change 
of  position  took  Mr.  Nelson,  Miss  Clarke,  Mr.  Pickett,  Dr.  Wire 
and  other  moving  spirits  out  of  its  circle;  but  it  brought  in 
the  late  lamented  Katharine  L.  Sharp  and  Anderson  H.  Hopkins, 
C.  W.  Andrews,  William  Warner  Bishop,  while  the  interest 
of  C.  B.  Roden,  William  Stetson  Merrill,  Irene  Warren,  C.  R. 
Perry  and  others  still  remained  a  helpful  influence  in  the  club. 
In  later  years  the  club  has  rejoiced  in  the  membership  of  the 
well-beloved  Henry  E.  Legler,  W.  N.  C.  Carlton,  Geo.  B.  Utley, 
all  prominent  in  the  national  councils  of  librarians. 

The  interest  of  the  club,  far  from  being  a  concentrated  pro- 
fessional thing,  reached  out  into  the  affairs  of  the  city  and  of 
the  state,  with  which  library  interests  were  of  right,  concerned. 
Through  the  initial  activity  and  continued  interest  of  the  Chciago 
Library  Club,  jail  libraries  for  Cook  County  were  first  started, 
from  which  grew  not  only  the  development  of  the  socialized 


4  CHICAGO  LIBRARY  CLUB 

attitude  of  the  Cook  County  and  Bridewell  jailers,  but  which, 
because  of  the  interest  of  Mr.  Whitman,  has  since  reached  out 
into  other  correctional  work  in  penal  institutions. 

The  home  libraries  were  the  seed  from  which  afterwards  grew 
institutional  and  deposit  libraries  throughout  the  city. 

When  the  library  interests  seemed  to  lack  in  treatment  the 
vision  and  appreciation  which  they  had  a  right  to  expect  from 
the  municipal  authorities,  a  committee  of  the  Chicago  Library 
Club  called  upon  the  then  mayor  of  Chicago  and  presented  to 
.him  those  things  which  they  considered  defects  in  the  manner 
and  cause  of  appointments  to  the  library  board  and  it  may  be 
safely  claimed  that  a  new  library  day  in  Chicago,  in  a  very 
large  measure,  began  through  the  influence  of  that  movement. 
The  Chicago  Library  Club  at  this  time  also  asked  the  mayor 
to  appoint  a  committee  of  citizens  to  consider  the  relations 
between  the  libraries,  museums  and  art  galleries  of  the  city  and 
out  of  that  grew  a  form  of  cooperation  which,  while  it  has  not 
yet  attained  the  growth  and  power  that  could  be  desired,  is  still 
a  work  that  redounds  to  the  credit  of  its  founders. 

The  publications  of  the  club  have  been  few,  the  magnum  opus 
being  the  List  of  Serials  in  the  public  libraries  of  Chicago  and 
vicinity.  This  work  was  afterward  taken  over  by  the  John 
Crerar  Library,  but  it  had  its  origin  in  the  spirit  of  the  Chicago 
Library  Club. 

In  the  early  days  the  discussions  before  the  club  were  largely 
on  library  work.  It  was  possible  then  to  have  persons  of  national 
reputation  address  the  club  on  matters  that  were  closely  related 
to  the  work  of  its  members.  William  H.  Brett  of  Cleveland, 
Mrs.  S.  C.  Fairchild,  Dr.  James  H.  Canfield,  Melvil  Dewey, 
Arthur  E.  Bostwick,  Dr.  Herbert  Putnam,  among  the  librarians, 
and  Professor  James  Westfall  Thompson,  Jane  Addams,  Pro- 
fessor Charles  Zueblin,  Dr.  Myra  Reynolds,  Rev.  F.  W.  Gun- 
saulus,  Colonel  F.  W.  Parker,  Mrs.  Ellen  H.  Richards  and 
others  outside  the  library  office  related  library  service  to  their 
fields  of  activity. 

The  annual  party,  which  has  grown  in  size  and  diversions,  if 
not  in  effect,  was  instituted  in  January,  1899,  and  its  effort,  more 
or  less  successful,  at  being  hostess  to  the  A.  L.  A.  and  at  times, 
to  its  council,  are  well  known. 

It  must  not  fail  to  be  recorded  that  the  transfer  of  the  A.  L.  A. 
headquarters  from  Boston  to  Chicago  was  initiated  by  members 
of  the  Chicago  Library  Club  and  that  the  generous  aid  which 
made  possible  the  first  fitting  up  of  headquarters  came  through 


the  influence  and  activity  of  the  Chicago  Library  Club  member- 
ship. 

There  is  a  temptation  to  dwell  upon  the  fields  that  were  not 
occupied,  the  endeavors  that  were  not  made  and  the  opportunities 
that  were  not  used,  in  looking  over  the  history  of  the  Chicago 
Library  Club,  the  temptation  fails  when  memory  also  recalls 
to  those  of  long  time  membership,  the  gratifying  and  valuable 
development  in  professional  spirit,  in  the  clearsightedness  of 
the  majority  of  the  members  and  the  appreciation  of  the  value 
of  professional  association  which  is  manifest  among  the  members 
today,  after  twenty-eight  years  of  existence. 

The  service  of  the  club  has  been  helpfully  extended,  through 
the  membership,  to  the  betterment  of  library  service  for  Illinois 
and  when  the  history  of  the  development  of  libraries  in  the 
state  is  recorded,  the  names  of  members  of  the  Chicago  Library 
Club  will,  of  right,  be  writ  in  its  annals. 

There  has  been  a  fine  spirit  of  camaraderie,  a  remarkable 
absence  of  personal  aggrandizement  or  ambition  and  a  willing- 
ness to  do  team  work,  that  can  be  traced  throughout  the  history 
of  the  club.  The  success  of  one  has  been  the  success  of  all  and 
the  misfortune  of  one  has  brought  forth  the  sympathy  of  all.
